Didn't it look consensual?

If the hot girl you're dating is allowed to strip down to her bra & panties, and then suddenly say, "No this is wrong. Let's stop" (or else you could get charged with date rape)..
..I see no reason why a guy can't do the same thing. -

-how would you define the word 'no'.
-i stop when a girl hints at a sound of pain and ask if she is ok.
-i feel that he got locked into some past memories of an old sex life that no longer exists. when he saw his imige in the mirrior he knew that. he played a victum at first, but then he came to his senses.
-as a male: if a girl says no once. you stop. then ask 'what's wrong?' -

It was up until the point where he decided he didn't want to continue. As stated earlier, if a woman can do that, then you can't say a man is obligated to continue just because she wants it.
Meredith then says finish what you started or I'll say
you
harrassed
me
? BS
To then backtrack when evidence is shown, and say "well this just shows consentual sexual relations," is ludicrous, when just a few minutes before her people were arguing that she was rape. If you now acknowledge it was consentual, then your accusation of harassment is without merit. -

I think saying no well over several times is an indicator that it wasn't consensual. How is that not enough? He shouldn't have to beat her off for her to stop. When he said no she should have stopped. Period.

Okay, I think I figured out just now that this is the problem with the movie. Not the way they showed the event, but that they showed it at all.
Much of the film is practically a trial. So, effectively a mystery. If we didn't see the office events, then they were revealed via testimony and the tape and so on, that might have worked. Seeing it took all the life out of the movie but revealing it, or then wondering if what we think we know was real (since it was all about lies and duplicity and conspiracies) would have helped it be a drama.
They could keep the sex scenes for use in trailers to deceive us as they can have 2 second flashbacks here and there. -

He said no several times. Why are women these days given such God status? If a woman says no the next DAY she's entitled to some bullcrap lawsuit.
Meredith was COMPLETELY in the wrong and COMPLETELY sexually ASSAULTING the man. She should've been arrested, thrown in jail, and F'd by a strap on by some random chick.
But nope instead she probably gets off scott free Probably a 'leave' from her job and no slap on the wrist, despite trying to ruin someone's life. -

I think the problem is is that the filmmakers did not have the guts to portray a full on sexual assault of a man, as brutally as they could have, which would have made it more dramatically effective perhaps, for the story that follows it.
